Blended Learning

For Ms. Kritzman's 4th Grade Class

2014-2015

What is blended learning?

Blended learning occurs anytime a student:

learns part of the time in a brick-and-mortar location, such as Deckerville

Elementary School

the other part of their learning is through an online delivery system,

which at our school is Moodle.

has some control over time, place, path, and/or pace of their
online learning.

Blended vs. Online

Learning for my
students
More engaging learning sessions

intrinsically motivating, so less
behavior issues

technology skills
